So for the past 5 or 6 games each game I've been in has had an extremely negative player. I just wanted to know if I was put in some sort of negative player matching making or if it has been a coincidence? Because I know that Dota2 has a system set up like that for players who have been leaving games and what not.
Riot has stated that they do not use a prisoner's island approach for in game toxicity. Either you got unlucky, you are only remembering the negative players in your games, or you are a negative player (toxic players tend to see more toxic players, as people respond to toxicity with toxicity).
From the old knowledge base:
"Why can't we put toxic players in a separate queue so that I don't have to deal with them?" (Prisoner's Island)
... because "L'enfer, c'est les autres"
Or if you prefer a less flippant answer:
[1] It has been considered and rejected by Riot: (link)
[2] It bifurcates ranked play. This would definitely not be usable in Ranked because it would split the ladder into two demographics and no longer be about the best players. [3] It creates a cesspit. In Normal Modes... there's a lot of potential discussion points that are just difficult to predict. For example, we know that toxic players tend to experience more toxicity because their teammates or opponents reciprocate their toxicity--that means on Prisoner's Island, the average game is going to be horrendously toxic to the point that the players might just quit (or create smurfs and wreck havoc on low level players). [4] It creates potentially horrible experiences for new players (and non-toxic players, as well).
